Java Applet, Swing, and Servlet Differences

Applets are small Java components that can be included in HTML pages, while Swing is a framework for developing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for both applets and standalone Java applications. Servlets are server-side components that run on a web server and extend the server's capabilities, while JSPs (JavaServer Pages) are web pages that use scripting to generate dynamic content and can be compiled into servlets. JavaScript is a client-side scripting language that runs in web browsers to provide dynamic interactivity on websites, whereas servlets and JSPs are server-side technologies.

ide java techniques
(dey receives a request and generates a response based on
it).-lyk PHP
JSP(Java Server Pages):-its a webpage scripting lang. dt cn generate dynamic con
tent,cn be compiled to servlets.
-easier to code coz similar to HTML.
-slow coz takes compilat tym to convert to java servlets.
servlets:-bt dey r java progs. dt r already complied which also creates dynamic
web content.
*************dif. b/w javascript ,jsp and servlets----
javascript:-completely diff. dynamic programming lang from java,though its synta

API-applicatn progaramming interface--list of all classes(prewritten) dt r part


of JDK for building s/w apps.
It specifies hw s/w components shud interact nd is used wn programming G
UI components.
JFC-Java Foundation Classes.D standard API for providing a GUI for a java prog.
Dey r a set of GUI components which simplify d development of desktop/wi
ndow-based apps.
******consist of AWT,SWING and JAVA 2D.
AWT(awt API)-Abstract Window Toolkit.Java's original platform-dependent(i.e.comp
onents r displayed acc. to d view of Operating System)
GUI toolkit preceding swing wd less and heavyweight(i.e. its comp. uses
d resources of d system)components.
SWING(SWING API)-its built on top of AWT API.It provides platform independent nd
light wt. components.
-->we can write d code of swing inside main(),const, or ny other method.
====-----the methods of component class(of AWT i.e. java.awt.Component)r widely
used in swing.
1. setVisible-sets d visibility of d component nd by default false.
(COMPONENT-an obj having a graphical representation dt cn be displayed on s
creen nd interact wd d user. eg-scrollpane,checkbox etc.)
-> public void setVisible(boolean b)
2. add-add a component on another component.
->public void add(Component c)
3. setSize-set size of d component.
->public void setSize(int width,int height)
4.setLayout-set d layout manager 4 d component.
->public void setlayout(LayoutManager m)
(JButton Class,JRadioButoon,JTextArea,JComboBox,JTable,JColorChooser,JPogressBar
,JSlider,Digital Watch,Graphics in swing,Displaying image,
OpenDialog Box,Notepad,BorderLayout,GridLayout,FlowLayout,CardLayout)

1.JButton-used to create button dt hv platform-independent implementatn
2.setDefaultCloseOperation()-used to specify one of several ops. for close butto
n.
dse const. cn be specified as choice:EXIT_ON_CLOSE-exit applicatn
HIDE_ON_CLOSE-hide frame bt keep app runn
